I Am The Lion King

Single Info

“This is Big Music. Music that reached out even as it explores a young man’s innermost feelings”
– The Guardian
PAPA release their new single, ‘I Am The Lion King’ on the 25th November 2013, through Island Records. It is taken from their forthcoming debut album, ‘Tender Madness’ released on the 4th November.
A free download package is available from the band’s Facebook site featuring a demo version of recent single Young Rut, handwritten lyrics of the tune and a drawing from Darren Presant’s recently publish book ‘The Only Thing Worse Than A Woman Is A Man’.
LA duo Danny Weiss and Darren Presant launched themselves in the UK earlier this year with the huge anthem in waiting, ‘Put Me to Work’ and its follow up ‘Young Rut’. As they prepare to unveil their debut album in November, they follow it up with the angular, hook-laden ‘I Am The Lion King.’
The childhood friends who have toured together in various incarnations from an early age have already been described by Radio 1’s Zane Lowe on the back of just two songs as, “So good. It’s like The Stooges and Interpol and all the purposeful rock bands past and present rolled into one.” PAPA are a band who refuse to waste a single power-chord on anything other than a killer punch.
The debut album has all the qualities needed to propel them beyond any readily accumulated interest, sold-out shows, and ever-increasing global support. A recent US tour alongside Cold War Kids has reignited PAPA beyond mere blog favourites, with acclaim reaching them from far and wide.
Recorded in their native LA, the songs sound as vital off stage as they do infront of their ever increasing fanbase. Speaking of the record, Weiss said: “Some of the songs on this album that come across as love songs, or lustful confessions, have much more to do with my feelings towards America than any personal romantic longings. Some love songs were written about fictional characters in novels who were often at times far more compelling than the creatures I had access to. I tried in earnest to tell my truths as I lived them.”
In November the band head to Europe for a series of live shows including a headline slot at London’s Dingwalls on the 6th November, alongside performances at the Iceland Airwaves Festival in Reykjavik and Les InRocks Festival in France.
